Notes

Description
The "octopus is a master of disguise and invention, creating her den out of the objects of the ocean, from shells and rocks to tiny glass shards. Using creative methods of hunting and construction, the octopus prepares for the biggest task of her life: motherhood. With one last, poignant gesture of love, the mother octopus sends her hatchlings on their way, starting a new cycle of life for the tiny offspring who face peril of their own. Offering ... informative back matter, including an author's note, a glossary, and ... 'octo-knowledge' (did you know that octopuses have nine brains, including one in each of their independently operating arms?), this third in a series ... continues the work of gently introducing children to the reality of the animal world"--,Provided by publisher.
